Mt Fuji is located on three plates. Those three plates are: Amurian, Okhotsk, and the Filipino located directly below Fuji.
it is a chemical interaction started by the water the subducted plate brings down with it which causes melting and forms magma which creates volcanoes
As two plates spread apart from each other at the boundary, magma that was trapped below wells up between them. This magma can be released in the form of volcanoes or ooze out from rift valleys.
At a divergent plate boundary the crust is thin. This reduces pressure on the upper mantle, lowering the melting point and allowing some rock to melt.
At a divergent plate boundary the crust is thin. This reduces pressure on the upper mantle, lowering the melting point and allowing some rock to melt.
When a huge piece of crust diverges (pulls apart), the crust becomes fractured and magma spills out on the surface.
Subduction occurs when one tectonic plate slides beneath another. As the descending plate moves deeper into the Earth's mantle, it heats up and releases water and gases. This causes the overlying plate to melt and form magma, which rises to the surface and creates volcanic activity. The accumulation of this magma and the compression of the overlying plate lead to the formation of mountains.
The type of plate boundary the Vesuvius is located on it a subduction zone in latitude 40.9n and 14e. It lies on the convergant boundry of the African and Euasian plates.
